You know what I mean. We have already discussed in the Barbaro (The Champ) thread how Bernardini is much better at this stage of the game than Flower Alley was last year at this stage of the game. There is no comparison.
Also, Flower Alley obviously has an injury that is hindering him this year due to his performance in his last start and the fact that he started so late this year. He may not be a world beater, but I due believe that he is a classy enough animal to win a Grade I win he fires. He just hasn't been firing lately. I hope TP can get him straight. It is a similar situation to LITF.
Flower Alley's race in the BCC was darn good for a three year old against a horse that was able to challenge GZ.
